Law #12: Law of Empowerment

Valerie Parham-Thompson

Maxwell tells the sad story of dis-empowerment that Henry Ford practiced, to increasing failure of the Ford company.

You have to go down, too, to push people down. Conversely, you will learn more and have more success as you empower those following you.

Interesting that Maxwell does not address how work improves if people take personal responsibility, which is created by empowerment.
